HT4721 why is my macbook pro so slow?

My mack is not responding when I type. They keys such as speaker button, delete, etc are delay.
When I use ipage nothing works. Please help. I just got this computer 4 months ago and it is working worst than my old notebook mac (2008)

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

You need to give us much more information. Which year and model version of Macbook Pro do you have? What "exactly" is running "slowly": internet downolads, Apps opening or running, etc.etc.? How much RAM do you have? How full is your hard drive?

Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible. The better your description, the better the chance of a solution.
For example, if the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? What other changes did you make, if any, just before it became slow? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.

Why is my Macbook pro so slow? And what can I do to fix this?

Greetings, I got my MacBook pro one and a half a year ago. For some reason, the last 4 months the computer has started to slow down. I get issues such as.
     - Beach ball appearing to often, even for simple commands such as open folder. etc.
     - Video files skipping frames. (any video file on any program. Even if its a buffer video such as youtube or Netflix).
     - Programs such as Photshop, Final Cut Pro etc, takes forever to render and work properly.
     - Web Browser taking forever to close a tab.
I am currently running a OS X V.10.8.5
2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
4GB 1600 MHz DDR3
353.2GB Freespace out of 499.25.
Could any one explain why would a mac slow down? (not a speculation, just why would it slow down like this. Especially the beach ball uninvited appearence).
I looked up the problem on the net, I get way to many differant answears that lead to getting scam programs, and or other 3rd party programs. (I did not download any of them)
I hope some of you understand the problem and have an answear to this. I tried to ask apple support, but they ask for money. I have a feeling that mac slow down forcing you to buy support intentionally (this is just a thought).
I avoid downloading uppdates from apple, because most people I know who uppdate macs always end up with a slow computer. + Last time I tried to uppdate the mac, I got a gray screen that blocked me from using the computer at all. To avoid this problem again, uppdating is not an option.
Pardon my English, it is not my native tounge.
Thank you for reading.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) on the advice of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At or near the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "System Version." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Why is my macbook pro running slow. It runs slow even if only one app is open, especially if it's a browser. I don't know how to read Etrecheck, but was hoping someone who does can help me out. Would be super grateful. :-)

Hi. This is my first time posting. My Macbook Pro with Os X Mavericks has been running super slow since before I installed Mavericks so I'm pretty sure it's not the OS that has the problem. It runs slow even if only one app is open, especially if it's a browser, particulary google chrome. If mail is open...forget about it, down to a crawl. I don't know how to read Etrecheck, but was hoping someone who does can help me out. Would be super grateful. :-)
P.S. - Also, it sounds like something is loose inside my mac. How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance.

Why is my Macbook Pro very slow to boot and also everything else?

Hi,
When I start my computer, it remains at the silver screen with Apple logo forever. The startup boot is supremely slow.
Even while i am opening applications, the icons keep on jumping at the dock for a long time before the application starts.
The problem started about two months ago however it has worsened a lot recently. This is my etrecheck profile. Hope it helps. Any help will be appreciated.
My MacbookPro is very slow. Here's the Etrecheck report.
Let me know what i should do.

Please uninstall "Cisco AnyConnect" and see whether there's an improvement. If there is, check to see whether there's an update, or preferably, use the built-in Cisco client instead.
Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
Back up all data before making any changes.
You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

Why is my MacBook Pro extremely slow

Hi.
My MacBook Pro has recently began to run extremely slow. I have tried several clean up guides from you tube, but so far nothing has helped.
My battery is completely dead, so I only run with the charger connected.
I have done the etreecheck and here are the results:

Hope someone will be able to help and guide me through a clean up.

nothing seems out of order, apart from the useless Norton Internet Security.
though, since you don't have lots of RAM, consider rebooting the Mac everyso often ( "Time since boot: 7 days 3:2:21").
" Battery Health: Replace Now": indeed, the battery is dead

Why is my Macbook Pro so slow when I run VM Ware Fusion?

My Macbook Pro is very slow when doing normal tasks (Mail especially) and slows to a stop when trying to run VM Ware Fusion. I need to run this to run a work program and that is the only thing that I do with Fusion. Everything seems to come to a halt when I boot up Fusion and I need to figure out what is causing it. Here is my analysis:

You do not have adequate ram to run a virtual machine as indicated by your Page-outs. You may also be assigning more memory to the VM guest than is prudent, or number of CPUs it uses. You should also use the latest VMware version available for Mavericks.
The other issue is that your machine is polluted with wireless modem and devguru kernel extensions that may no longer be compatible with Mavericks and may be posing conflicts between each other. Eliminate your login items from within System Preferences > Users & Groups. Launch what you need, when you need it, from the Dock, or /Applications.
Do you use all of those Internet Plug-ins in Safari, or could you remove some third-party plug-ins?

Why is my Macbook Pro running slow

I just recently starting having problems with my MacBook last night. I have a lot of Adobe files on my computer for school purposes and I had to download Microsoft Word for work. It's starting to run slow and I need it to be fixed ASAP. I went to Etrecheck and this is what it gave me

What do I need to do to help my computer run normally?

Try resetting your SMC.
Resetting the SMC of an Intel-based portable Mac with a battery you should not remove on your own
Note: This will not delete any data.
The SMC is responsible for controlling various system functions. None of your data will be deleted by resetting the SMC.
Shut down the computer by going to Apple () > Shut Down…
Select Shut Down or allow the computer to shut down automatically.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter into a power source and then connect it to your Mac if you have not already done so.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift (⇧), Control (⌃), and Option (⌥) keys and the Power Button at the same time.
Release the (left side) Shift (⇧), Control (⌃), and Option (⌥) keys and the Power Button at the same time.
I hope I helped.

Why is my macbook Pro 17" slow compared to desktop PCs?

I switched over to a mac before the summer. I am a Systems Engineer so I'm on the computer a lot and always working in several different programs at a time. I find that my macbook is very slow compared to any desktop I use. I have a keyboard that I hook up to my macbook pro and I have a bluetooth mouse. The bluetooth mouse seems very slow when I click it and I have the settings set to fast. Manuevering around the macbook pro just seems so slow and my productivity goes way down when I work from home as opposed to when I am at work on a desktop. Any ideas?

Hi, p4d. You don't have a late-2008 MBP, so you'd probably do better to repost in a more appropriate forum for your MBP model:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1149
When posting there, it will be useful for those responding to your post if you'll specify what other computer(s) you're comparing your MBP to. A notebook computer and a desktop computer with roughly similar specs are unlikely to match up very closely; the notebook will usually benchmark slower and will often feel slower too — especially when running on battery power. Energy-saving features that a desktop doesn't need are often invoked automatically when a notebook runs off its battery, and typically they result in slower performance. Beyond these general comments, I can't ofer any more specific suggestions or tests for your situation. I hope you'll find more focused help in the other forum.
If your BlueTooth mouse is sluggish, then it would be useful to test using an ordinary USB mouse to see whether the BT connection is part (or all) of the problem. I don't think highly of BT — it's a lot more trouble than it's worth, as far as I'm concerned.

Why is my MacBook Pro running slow with spinning rainbow icon?

I currently have a MacBook Pro 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GB running Snow Leopard that is a little over a year old and lately it has been getting really hot on the bottom right corner and will randomly have a spinning rainbow icon when I try to surf the web or multitask. It never did this until about 3 months ago. It now runs very slow at times. What is causing this and how can it be fixed? Thanks.

Go to the bottom of that window and click the submenu "CPU" to see the dynamic read-out of I/O [in and out]. This will give you an overview of the system activity. If you want to isolate one process, then click on it to highlight then look at the read-out.
If the numbers are low with no unusual spikes then you need to look elsewhere to discover the slow down in the system. It might be lack of operating room on the HD. Check your Macintosh HD icon in the upper right of the desktop: highlight and press Command + "I" [⌘I] for Info. If your disk is starting to fill up and there is not enough free space, that can slow down the works.

Why is my MacBook Pro very slow after installing Mountain Lion 10.8.5. - Solutions?

Hello, hello
After waiting quite a while - I paid the relatively small amount, and got myselves a new OS.
But I am very disappointed of the speed - I see that this also was a problem with OS Lion?
Please assist me. Perhaps others have this problem as well?
Some info:
- 2,66 GHz Intel Core i7 processor
- 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Also
- Sometimes I run the Parallels Desktop 6 and 9 software, does this affect specs of the new OS?
Hope to hear from you guys.
Sincerely,
Harald

With only 4GB of RAM, how much do you have devoted to the virtual machine running under Parallels? Even if it's a small amount, it's going to make page outs and swaps used very high. From my perspective, 8GB of RAM is the 'sweet spot' for running Mountain Lion.
I'm assuming that you've a 15" mid-2010 MacBook Pro? If so, you can speed things up by installing the maximum 8GB of RAM. Go RAM shopping at Crucial or OWC.
Other than upgrading your RAM, the only thing that you can do to speed up your machine is to install a SSD. You can also check the SSDs at Crucial and OWC and decide if one is right for you.
